Ellie had soccer the day after we built the Ark for Kate’s soccer game. We thanked our lucky stars Ellie’s game was not a home game. When we left it was raining so hard we could hardly drive, but we noticed that the rain was letting up the closer we got to the game.
Clearly the weather front had just come through because there was a ton of standing water BUT it wasn’t falling from the sky so we were happy!
It’s been fun to watch this team this year because they have all gotten so much better. The last few years its been mob ball every game. This year they’ve really come together as a team passing to each other and moving strategically to help each other out. Ellie, our quiet, passive girlie who plays more for the camaraderie than the competition has gotten into the spirit this year. Ellie scored a goal earlier in the year and it has really started her engine. (Look at that form!)
And since there was a competition for who was the muddiest after the game, Ellie didn’t mind posing for this shot for me. See? I told you it had rained!
